The fight over the proposition to
subscribe half a million dollars to the
stock of the Midland Railroad is
growing very warm in Davidson
county. The Louisville & Nashville
Railroad is fighting themeasure with
all its might and main, and there is
no doubt of the fact that it Yields an
enormous power. The outlook, how
ever, at present, is favorable for the
success of the measure, but should il
fail we believe the business men OF
Nashville will make up the amount
of the subscription within As hours
after the result of the election is an.
nounced. Three thousand men are
now at work on the Midland road in
West Tennessee, and we believe the
road will be built and in operation tC

THE ants will claim every voter
who does not exercise his privilege
on the Goth, and so far as the result
of their action, or non-action, is con-
cerned, all who fail to vote will count
for the ants, but Notwithstanding
this fact there are thousands of men
in Tennessee who are prohibitionists
at heart, but who are too weakened
to assert their principles, or who will
be kept from the polls by one subter-
fuge or another. If every man in
Tennessee who sincerely favors pro-
hibition.would f~earlessly and consci-
enciously vote his convictions on the
Goth of September, the saloons would
be buried face downward forever.

GALL signs fail in dry weather"
Senator Harris has at last written a
letter in which he states that he is
opposed to the amendment. He gives
no reasons for his position, and de-
clines to take any active part in the
canvass. We believe with the Obion
Democrat that if the Senior Senator
thought that the question had the
slightest tendency to work harm to
the Democratic party he would roll
up his sleeves and go into the fight.
He displays more wisdom than some
of his ardent admirers.
